Botulinum toxin is a naturally occurring protein produced by the bacteria Clostridium botulinum. Botulinum toxin types A—the active ingredient in XEOMIN—is produced commercially from C. botulinum serotype A.

XEOMIN is injected into muscles to decrease their activity

XEOMIN blocks the release of a chemical messengeracetylcholine—that conveys the signal from nerve terminals and causes muscle fibers to contract. Not all terminals are affected by botulinum toxin, so the muscles can still contract, just less forcefully. This allows the muscles to contract more normally.

Not all botulinum toxin products are the same. This is reflected in the unique names for each product. The dose of XEOMIN may be different from other botulinum toxin products.

In nature, C. botulinum produces the toxin in association with accessory proteins (toxin complex). Merz takes the toxin complex and employs a proprietary manufacturing process that isolates the therapeutic component and removes the accessory proteins to produce XEOMIN.
